_______________________________________________________
Details:
On a Dell Dimension 4600 with the (latest) A12 BIOS, with HyperThreading
enabled in the BIOS and the USB Emulation option enabled (by default), grub2
in Fedora 18 (grub2-2.00-15.fc18.i686) reaches the boot selection menu but
then freezes up and won't respond to any keys. Disabling either HT or the USB
Emulation option results in grub2 working normally. Presumably USB Emulation
is needed to use a USB keyboard in the boot menu, however.
